Control Buttons
Table 3-2 lists the primary control button functions. The function of
the button changes depending on the menu level. Buttons either
control navigating through the menus or
incrementing/decrementing numeric values.
When entering a number, the <Up> and <Down> buttons start in the
slow mode and change to the fast mode if either button is held down.
Most numbers go to a maximum of 255; for a large number, it may be
faster to use the <Down> button.
